Home Before Dark
Carolina Moon book 1

-From Amazon-
Nothing good ever happens after dark.
Those were the words country singer Daleigh McDermott’s father always repeated. Now her father is dead, and Daleigh fears she’s returned home too late to make things right. As she’s about to flee back to Nashville, she finds a hidden journal belonging to her father. His words hint that his death was no accident. Small town mechanic Ryan Shields is the only one who seems to believe that Daleigh may be on to something. Her father trusted the man, but Daleigh’s instant attraction to Ryan scares her. She knows her life and career, however dwindling it might be, are back in Nashville and that her time in the sleepy North Carolina town is only temporary. As Daleigh and Ryan work to unravel the mystery, it becomes obvious that someone wants them dead. They must rely on each other—and on God—if they hope to make it home before the darkness swallows them whole. Home Before Dark offers a blend of Nicholas Sparks meets Mary Higgins Clark, a mix of charming small town life in North Carolina tangled in a gripping suspense.
Small towns are not always boring...

I am continually in awe of the variety in Christy Barritt's characters, how flawed, quirky, and real they are. Daleigh's life isn't exactly going her way right now, she can't get along with her hyper-critical sister, her boyfriend isn't there when she needs him, her career is flagging, she is attracted to a small-town guy, and to top it all off it really looks like her dad may have been murdered. But maybe, just maybe, God is moving her in a totally unexpected direction and maybe He will use those bad things for good. Home Before Dark was as much a story of relationships as suspense which was an element I really liked.
Home Before Dark is a wonderful story small-town delights, romance, and mystery. I thoroughly enjoyed it and I can't wait to read book two in the Carolina Moon series. As usual, Christy Barritt has me hooked good!
